This mounting systems manufacturer has strong internal advocacy helping employees understand the value of lower-cost care options, which has supported solid program adoption. However, Smart Scan Medical Imaging and Smart Infusion Therapy Services are not formally designated as preferred providers within the plan, and there is no structured hard stop before non-emergent care decisions are made.
As a result, some care still defaults outside the intended pathway, limiting full utilization and leaving additional savings opportunity unrealized.
To better manage healthcare costs, the company incorporated Smart Scan Medical Imaging and Smart Infusion Therapy Services into its broader cost-containment strategy, supported by strong internal HR communication and employee advocacy.
The plan includes financial incentives through its Direct Primary Care model, helping encourage more cost-effective care decisions. In 2025, the organization completed 39 MRIs and 3 infusions, representing 77% scan utilization and 50% infusion utilization, while generating $115,000 in annual savings. The next opportunity lies in strengthening plan design alignment and decision support so even more care is directed into the program over time.
A mounting systems manufacturer partnered with Smart Scan Medical Imaging and Smart Infusion Therapy Services to improve how healthcare costs are managed within its self-funded health plan. The program has demonstrated strong performance and highlights the impact of aligning plan design with employee understanding.
This case demonstrates that strong internal engagement can drive meaningful savings, even when all plan design attributes are not fully in place.
At 77% utilization for scans and 50% utilization for infusions, the program is already generating strong financial impact. More importantly, it shows that when employee education and internal advocacy are strong, utilization can accelerate even before the plan is fully optimized.
With continued internal alignment and reinforcement, the organization is well positioned not only to sustain its current savings, but to expand them over time.
This case demonstrates how clear communication and strong adoption can transform a well-communicated care strategy into a reliable, long-term cost-control model.
Ultimately, it reinforces a key principle: sustainable savings are not driven by pricing alone, but by aligning plan design, access, and employee behavior.
Smart Scan Medical Imaging and Smart Infusion Therapy Services provide employers with a high-quality, lower-cost alternative to traditional hospital-based care. By combining the highest quality care, advanced diagnostics, a full specialty medication formulary, rapid access, and transparent pricing, Smart Scan and Smart Infusion help organizations reduce healthcare spend while improving the employee experience.
